Surrounded by water, filled with parks and people and treasured landmarks, Oak Bluffs is a photogenic town. The Ocean Park bandstand adorned with bunting for the Fourth of July or adorned with a Christmas tree and snow. East Chop Lighthouse standing guard at Telegraph Hill. The sunrise off Inkwell, the sunset over Sengekontacket, Circuit avenue bustling with visitors and traffic in the height of the summer season.

There are quieter moments, too, for the photographer in the right place at the right time, for the person who rises early or waits for the right moment. A seal resting off the beach, a heron in Farm Pond, a foggy afternoon over Sunset Lake.
